Winchester CTC is welcoming many new members. To help both riders and leaders stay safe and enjoy the rides, we have produced outline guidance for group riding. Please read and apply them. Please note that this is a summary only and only highlights the most important points. Please see the more detailed Guidance for Riders, which explains each point and provides further useful information.

1. Ride safely and always follow the Highway Code.2. Look out for others in your group and don't be afraid to ask for assistance yourself.3. Make sure you are known to the leader and follow their instructions. Most rides also have a backmarker to ensure the group stays together.4. Do not ride more than two abreast except when overtaking.5. Ride in single file on narrow and busy roads if it is safe to do so. Always overtake on the right.6. In a large group, be prepared to split into smaller groups to allow cars to pass. Leave a gap of about 4 car lengths.
